Shadow didn't lie, it is a crutch. Normal weapons only output a small percentage of the channeled mana, think like electricity lost as heat due to the material's resistance. Mythril artifact swords output 50%, which is great for this world. But slime swords have a 99% conductivity and can be dynamically shaped, whereas her blade is heavy and poorly designed. So depending on that weapon is objectively worse for her. Beatrix actively shows how a simpler, but better designed sword, allows her to fare far better.

And Shadow's demonstration essentially told her, to her face, "Not only can I eradicate you, not only can I eradicate your kingdom, but I can do so in a fashion so spectacularly, that it'll be remembered more by the attack that destroyed it than as a Kingdom itself."

man I love how this episode shows Iris' mind slowly deteriorating with the addiction to defeating shadow. It's not about being stronger than him to protect the kingdom anymore, so much because it's her attacks that destroy the city. It's the sole and pure aim of getting over him and making him feel the humiliation she felt. And even in the end, with her attempt to deceive him and he not only counterattacks but calls her an amateur, it shows that the way to defeat him is much more than a simple and cliché fight strategy. Shadow in this episode perfectly shows the two characters, who were always praised as invincible ones, they still have a very long way to go to really be strong. Looking under a screenwriter's bias, it looks like the mangaka himself giving a moral slap on the cliched isekai stories and parodying the story itself!

In fact you are wrong, the only scene where there is a very significant destruction is when Beatrix and Shadow collide swords and destroy entire buildings while the screams of terror of the people are heard. It's obvious to us who is the bad guy and who is the good guy but from Iris's POV, she only saw a blonde who defeated a huge creature taking a lot of destruction of civilian property, Shadow garden destroy1ng the center of Midgar against Zenon Griffy , they flooded the city with the greatest religious p0wer, they destr0yed the church with the greatest religi0us relevance, Iris after losing saw shadow protecting the murd3r of the king of Oriana and a long etc. Furthermore, she even suspects that Diablos and Shadow Garden are the same organization in secret. It is reasonable to suspect that at least from the POV of her. Add to that that she has the pressure of a kingdom and they compare her to an elf warrior goddess hundreds of years old at least. the comparison is unfair, Iris is in fact very skilled, one of the strongest mortals but Shadow transcends what a mortal is, in fact the mangaka threw out a fact that with the enormous magic of shadow, shadow could extend his life up to 300 years (that is, live on average the same as an elf lives in that world)

Beatrix had trained and honed her own talents for years and probably the only focus other than trying to find her niece even without any support of supreme magic... Iris had been always upfront at her blood as a royalty, had been too expected with the responsibility, had too much stress until she does not realize her action was more destructive when trying to defeat the impossible. Saying it is for the 'kingdom' while her borrowed power's excess of force probably injured more civilians than Shadow would've.

Iris is like a perfect storm of spoiled entitlement. She's both a princess AND a prodigy, the mentalities of which are even further exacerbated by the expectations of the knight order she leads and the kingdom she protects. Everything has been handed to her on a silver platter, from status to talent. She's so accustomed to standing at the top that someone she perceives as an enemy being better than her shatters her entire world. Shadow is not beholden to any nation and answers to no one- someone so far outside her range of authority being so much better than her nearly breaks her. Having someone shove her face in the dirt was a humbling experience she sorely needed. Hopefully she'll grow as a person after this, but I'm not holding my breath.

That's how you show speed. I've waited for an anime do finally do this. No sound, no weird visual, no wind movement, nothing. Just gone. That's how you show otherworldly speed, beyond comprehension.

After reading the light novels and hearing Shadows explanation of magic in this world. I can only imagine just how much Mana Iris is wasting. If Mythril can only conduct 50% of anyone's magic power then the wastefulness of her attacks is like if you poured a gallon of water into a styrofoam Dixie cup. Oriana is right.

Genuinely underrated comment right here. She has to have QUITE the amount of magic in her to be able to just dump AOE attacks like that. Granted, she is incredibly upset at this point, anger giving her a likely boost in stamina and subsequently magic energy, but it's also cost her any semblance of tactics aside from "attack his blind spot when he's distracted" over and over and over again. Real berserker-esque style that, while it may work on some, does not work on the trained and talented, who can easily bypass/side-step rookie-level tactics like that with ease. Keeping in mind that Shadow, himself, was born with an average amount of magic power for a human, and the fact that he can refine his technique to such a degree that even without slime/a slime suit, he can extract far more power per magicule than anyone else at this point in the story, and he's taking what he's got and wringing every last drop he can each and every time.

I love how, Shadow isn't even trying very hard. When he tries, at 3:35, he absolutely annihalates them. Also, he's probably the one who did the LEAST property damage. Like, the only time it can solely be attributed to him, is when he stomps them into the ground at the clocktower(?). And then Iris has the balls to say "YOU DESTROYED THE CAPITAL!" like an entitled b*tch.

They didn't change anything narratively, they just made a fight that was already badass in both the novel and manga and made it even better.

Bear in mind, Shadow never does anything to let the kingdom (and by extention her) know that Shadow Garden are cool and the Cult is the bad guys. He just shows up during crucial incidents, styles in everyones faces and disappears leaving a nuclear explosion behind. Imagine knowing everyone you love is at the mercy of powerfull forces you cant even grasp or know anything about, and then this weaboo you think is a satan cultist comes around throwing One-liners and messing with your political events... I would be pissed too (bear in mind, i absolutely love how random and gratuitous shadow is)

That right there is a very good princess. She protects her subjects by killing them before a bad guy can. Brilliant.

Honestly was a bit disappointed with how they did this part. In the light novel he scoffed at them because they are insignificant. He also handled them a lot more concisely and didn't wreak all the havoc and destruction shown in the anime. That fits with the mastermind in the shadows more than this ostentatious depiction. Also, the lack of damage to innocents changes how he is viewed dramatically, and his subordinates believed themselves to be fighting evil or be the good guys to some extent.

​@@travisspicer5514 tbh, he didn't do shit, most of the building getting destroyed was from Iris mithril blade. Although in that one part where Shadow (with crowbars) and Beatrix were fighting 1v1 I have no clue why the building collapsed. Don't make much sense, but I think it doesn't add to the story, it was just to show their power.

My favourite part of this fight is that no one knows it's going on around them and sh*t is just blowing up around them. Truly a shadow when you can have a fight of this scale and no one even knew it happened.

00:40 - 01:08 is so good oml, i like and think op mc's should be often portrayed like that

I loved how Cid isn’t even taking this fight seriously it’s just fun to him.

I'ma be honest, this is one of the best fights of the new decade. (2020-2030)

Shadow is like a god that just wanted to mess around to amuse himself. The story ain’t even focus on either him or his development, but that’s why watching The Eminence in Shadow was as satisfied as watching OPM. Because we don’t need to afraid the MC would suffer or die, we just need to see wether all other details are logical enough and know if the MC takes action the fight is over.

That knee, dodge, grab, slam ,and finally stomp was so smooth and cold. I swear one of the best done fights in anime

3:26 I just realised that when iris dropped the weapon for a take down the camera goes to beatrix eyes with suprise all this time I thought it were Cid's eyes showing disappointment but now it's clear cid wasn't disappointed in iris he knew she was one and just called her a amateur to fuel her range and see how much more she can humiliate herself.

this also portayed so perfectly well how Iris as a fighter is gifted in a sense, but has overly relied on that gift and never honed her craft. throughout season the anime when we see Iris fight.. the common denominators. "Massive mana" huge ass powerfull swings and the sword crumbles afterwards. Throughout this fight you can also see that she keeps doing the same thing, massive swings, massive outburst of her magic and extreme amounts of pyro generation. Not once does she do smaller swings. She is literally a genius that have overly relied on her one asset, power, to the point where.. she basically is "canonfodder" to anyone more powerfull than a stereotypical knight

It’s interesting that yes he has overwhelming magic power and physical strength but the reason he is easily outclassing them is purely his skill

Bruh his “NAZE” makes me 🥜 every damn time, just sounds so damn badass 😫

I just love this he's OP because he pushed himself to his limits and broke all the walls that would have been holding anyone else back HE EARNED his OP though insane training and pushing himself over and over again to be the true strongest alive also with his quick way of adapting to what's around him and using it to help him in the fights he's in

I find it so cool how Beatrix started getting used to Shadow teleporting and even split his iron bar.

Run? Where? Why. Let me show you why it is not necessary for me to run anywhere. I am .... Absolutely the best. They actually believed they could win, even though he trounced them throughout the fight. If he used his trump card, the entire city would be nothing but dust, including all within it, except for him. The fact that she blocked his strikes shows that he was letting her off easy. He moved so quickly, and only attacked when he was sure she would be able to block it. Sort of a 'You suck so bad, I have to give you some sort of handicap advantage. I won't strike as soon as I can, but give you a chance. There you go. You blocked it. Good girl.'

Shadow, the second character to break anime's rule after Eren Yeager who attacked his opponent while they're still transforming.

Blue shift can do that... move the speed of light. Interact with nothing as you'd essentially have ceased to exist in one spot to appear in another... use magic. Or sufficiently advanced science. That would appear to be magic. Apply both science and magic? This would be theoretically plausible. He was in modern day Japan trying to figure out how to survive a nuke with his bare strength and be the eminence in shadow... the one who appears as a regular person in everyday situations but secretly controls everything. Dies gets reincarnated here with magic... tells nobody he practiced magic everyday since birth kept all his other skills he picked up here like martial arts various scientific and psychological studies he'd committed to memory. All kinds of things. Kept all those. Then finds himself in a world of magic that's scientifically subpar... survive the nuke? He IS the nuke.

when a crowbar is more powerful than iris's artifact weapon 😂😂😂

I Remember watching show and thinking that shadow was going to be a anti hero type character, but he really wasn't which surprised me. What got me more was the usual evolution of iris as character. Her sister, whos far more open minded sees the value in shadow garden and that they're trying to help. However Iris narrow minded way thinking leads to an unhealthy obsession and she's start to become blind to what's truly going on. 10/10 character development.

Bro is literally the dream isekai mc , he's doing all the bucket list to do when you got isekai😂😩

That reverb blocking sfx in the end of every chain of attack is really satisfying

Damn if he taught her what he taught his gang about the rightful use of magic Beatrix would be a freakin' menace more than she already is

its been months but still cant get over how powerful a crow bar can be

If I remember correctly, in the light novel during this fight he's basically not even paying attention and is busy thinking about various other things and daydreaming while is body is basically on autopilot. But to the girls, it's the most extreme fight of their lives.

One of the best last episodes to a first season I've ever seen

Our man was here only using basic attacks and agility the entire time, ditched the sword and used instead Half Life crowbars, he went from 0.000001% to a 100% to a hundred real quick at the end

That “AND WHY?” was so cold

love the boss music playing when he reveals his shadow form in front of them. made me feel like i'm playing against a megaman boss.
